In the rural northeastern mountainous regions stands a tiny Buddhist temple, named One Finger Temple. It isn’t a large one but it is extremely miraculous.
The temple has rice that emanates an aromatic fragrance.
The temple has sweet and refreshing water that rivals ambrosia.
The temple has Buddhas that grant wishes to the sincere.
The temple isn’t large but it has everything. The temple isn’t large but it has flourishing incense offerings that far exceed all temples. The temple isn’t large but it attracts both citizens and foreigners that line up overnight…
The temple has a bald but handsome monk. Every day, he would bawl, “I want to renounce asceticism! I want to marry a chick that’s not too pretty, have a cute baby, and lead a stable life!”
This book is a casual novel that introduces various Chinese traditional customs, as well as Buddhist ones. It strives to be a positive book, allowing people to reflect on how they should live their lives and treat others.
The history of the human race is like the stars in the sky, each of which has its moment of twinkling in the starry sky. At the end of the fifth century BC, when China entered the Warring States Period, the Mediterranean was also a place of hegemony: the powerful empire of Persia, the two Greek giants Athens and Sparta, the overlord of the western Mediterranean Carthage, the king of Sicily Syracuse, the rising Rome and Macedonia, as well as the barbaric and powerful Gauls and Thracians, the erratic Numidians and Scythians... The seriously ill protagonist traveled through time and space to the body of an Athenian teenager. Faced with such an era, is he willing to live his life in peace? Or is he willing to take up a three-foot sword and write a bold and colorful stroke in the magnificent history of the Mediterranean?
An ordinary female college student is reborn in a fictional ancient dynasty. She becomes him. In the process of constantly adapting to this era, he witnesses the struggles of the lower classes, the extravagance of the upper class, the integrity of scholars, and the opportunism of politicians.
This is a cruel society with a hierarchical system, and he was unfortunately reborn here. All he wants is to live with dignity.
Studying, taking the imperial examinations, becoming an official.
At first, he only wanted to protect his family; later, he wanted to help his friends; and still later, he wanted to make people human.
I am willing to dedicate my entire life to ensuring that everyone in the world has clothes to wear, food to eat, and the ability to live with dignity.
P.S.: No romantic pairing, no romantic relationship, the protagonist is devoid of emotions and love, slightly overpowered, slightly cheat-like, and spends the entire time striving to build a new society.
P.S.: The pacing is slow, and the protagonist is an ordinary person who grows through experience. Don't argue, or you're right. Also, the characters in the book are generally based on real people and have been artistically adapted, so don't think it's illogical just because you haven't seen them. I myself think it's outrageous.
P.S.: This is free, so please don't be so hostile, okay? If you don't like it, please leave after reading the synopsis. This is my rambling style; I love writing about everyday life, and I like to write slowly. If you want a purely satisfying read, please go to the other site. I'm not satisfied at all; the protagonist is just a lucky ordinary person. Can't ordinary people have dreams? We're all ordinary people; how many of us are amazing from the start?
P.S.: Based on the reader reviews I've collected, just bear with the beginning, it's actually a bit boring at the start (┯_┯), but it gets really good later on, sob sob.
Lin Mo obtained a “Bootlicker System.”
The system sends him money to pursue his goddess.

Lin Mo started living a life of constantly finding beautiful girls and showering them with gifts every day.

He is… Lu Jin: “That’s right, it’s me.” Lu Jin transmigrated to the Warhammer universe. Severely injured, he discovered that besides his innate fearlessness and physical strength, he also possessed a peculiar ability to grow stronger in battle. In a cruel universe filled only with war, Lu Jin embarked on a path to becoming a war god, leaving behind many famous quotes. “Trying to tempt me into becoming Khorne’s chosen one? What kind of bravery is it to kill? Let Khorne be my chosen one!” “Real beings generate emotions to nourish the Warp, and the Warp has nothing to repay real beings…” “Imperial nobles want to enslave me? They deserve to die!”

Lin Ke, a former free-fighting fighter in Southeast Asia, was reborn in a parallel universe as a low-ranking police officer named Dharman Kumar at a grassroots police station in Mumbai, India. At this moment, India was undergoing a once-in-a-millennium reform and opening-up policy, allowing private companies to enter previously state-controlled sectors such as energy, electricity, mining, and transportation. India's major monopolies and private conglomerates began to expand rapidly, affecting every aspect of Indian life. Simultaneously, crimes such as robbery, extortion, kidnapping, and terrorism surged across India, each wave rising in intensity. Gazing upon the vibrant, flourishing subcontinent before him, Dharman's face beamed with a broad smile. "This is my promised land!"
Fujiwara Oboro is also a good kid in the eyes of others. He has excellent grades, is good at sports, and is willing to help others. He lends a hand to children who are bullied in school, hone his chess skills with the losing Naniwa Shirayuki, picks up the abandoned kitten and takes it home, and saves the heroine of "Transformation" who was going astray... Why, he only did some very ordinary little things. Since when, Oboro found that the heroines in the anime have all thrown themselves at him. The plan is successful~ (the protagonist is not a Japanese-style male protagonist, he is black-bellied, so be careful) (The world of anime, tentatively: Beautiful Girl Kaleidoscope, Rent-a-Girlfriend, The Dragon King's Work Is Not Working, Sword Art Online, How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend, My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong As I Expected...)
As a time traveler transported to the Warhammer 40k universe carrying high-dimensional information, could a simple death in the right manner grant him instant invincibility? Zhang Ge glanced at his laser rifle and asked his companions the name of the planet. Upon receiving the answer, "Vigilance," he exclaimed, "I've never had such a wonderful start." As a leading figure in the Imperial Guard, how could death be easy in a battle of this magnitude? Essentially, there was nothing to do, just stay in the trenches, and the enemy would find creative ways to kill you. However, when a casual touch of the laser rifle caused its machine spirit to tremble with joy, and when he seized the opportunity to poke his head out of the trench and kill a dozen heretics, and a shell slammed into the trench, sending shrapnel and shockwaves slicing through the entire platoon's position, killing thirty or forty allies besides Zhang Ge, but just avoiding him, he realized that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
